And no, I don't work for them -- just happened to read about it in the office of the local dermatologist who did the research and went public with the efficacy of the treatment. I have a feeling you *might* be able to perform the same miracle with other similar lotions, although I really have nothing whatsoever on which to base that "feeling".
